Tell us in a few words what the summer job/internship consisted of?

As a digital creative intern, I worked on a wide variety of projects where I got to design static & video banners, canvas ads, video campaigns, digital activations, and social media content for different brands. Some of the brands included HBO, Acorn TV, UMC, Amazon, Netflix, and even a Broadway Show. I also got to take part in weekly brainstorms where we would discuss new concepts for our clients upcoming shows or projects. Moreover, I got a first hand look at what the overall creative process was like at a big company. I was able to work with creative directors, designers, copywriters, and other interns from the different Allied offices in London and LA.

What was your favorite part? 

My favorite part about the internship was that I was treated like a junior designer. I was given a lot of creative freedom to complete the projects I was assigned. Furthermore, the team that I worked with was amazing. They would challenge me with new projects, but also take the time to teach me new techniques and softwares.

Did you receive a return offer?
